I aint done a ship kit for ages, last one was a re hash of a Plastic 1/700 scale modern British destroyer, but I have a rather good one (a Flyhawk 1/700 scale HMS Hood) OC.

She is looking superb - Its down to the hand of the builder that makes the difference, and Boy do we know about Corel's kits - kind of a great idea - rushed through with no quality control, that requires that bit more skill to make good. OC.

Perhaps a Thre man job - inside either side of the breech the aimer and fire-er and a loader. OC.

Its great seeing you back on this my friend - what you are doing is amazing - when you push a build to show as much detail as possible goes far further than kit making, keep it up Kevin welcome back. OC.

Old Collingwood replied to Old Collingwood's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
Evening all, I thought I would jump back on this for a bit - I have cleaned up the cockpit tub and fitted the control columbs, and cleaned up the PE side consols, I have dry fitted the Resin bang seats after removing some of the plastic rails on the floor of the tub (to make them fit better. I will be airbrusing my Black Primer to the assemblies before giving them there correct colours, I will also re paint the dials. OC. -
Well done Alan - she looks Superb mate - she needs a nice spot now so you can admire what you have done. OC.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
